Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: A few good songs Comment: I recall about two years of fame for Spin Doctors, which is when I bought this CD - "Two Princes" got a lot of air time. My favorite is "Jimmy Olsen's Blues". Customer Rating: Summary: Brilliant CD Comment: Back when this CD was fresh and new, I couldn't stand it. The radio stations just killed "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong", and everytime I heard it, I wanted to hit the radio. Fast Forward 16 years later, I find myself listening to more and more jam bands. I decided to give this CD a shot, and was amazed it went totally beyond that song I mentioned above. This CD is fantastic! I would recommend it to anyone. That song may have been beaten to death..but the rest of the songs on this CD are classic in their own right. Worth your $$ Customer Rating: Summary: One of my favorite all time. Comment: Great album. Spin Doctors wrongly got the reputation from critics as a flash in the pan one hit wonder who couldn't handle the success. In fact they are a extremely talented band who put out an outstanding body of fun, catchy, jamming rock music. Dig it. Customer Rating: Summary: Still groovy after all this time! Comment: What the devil happened to the Spin Doctors? This album is so tight, and full of funkiness, it really makes you wonder why you haven't heard from these guys recently. My band is actually planning on covering at least three of the tunes on this album. Customer Rating: Summary: I think the Spin Doctors guy has a beard now Comment: I don't know why in the world I ever bought this CD. I was young, stupid, and I needed the money. Wait, that's why I did something else. Never mind. Anyway, I admit I used to like this CD. A lot. I was in high school and I didn't know better. Well, I guess I shouldn't be so hard on these guys. There's not much of anything out there that can survive 15 years. For example, I'm sure if I saw the way I dressed 15 years ago I would award myself no stars. So in the spirit of fairness, I'll give Pocket Full of Kryptonite the rating I would have given it in 1991: Five Freakin' Stars, man! Rock on, Spin Docs! More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: As a jam band in the vein of Blues Traveler and Phish, Spin Doctors built a grassroots following by playing anywhere and everywhere. After a live EP caught their early potential, they released this uncharacteristically tight debut album. Featuring several hits that could have appeared on a Steve Miller Band album, Kryptonite became an immediate frat-rock favorite. Thanks to a spotless production, the tight groove of "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong," "Two Princes," and "Jimmy Olsen's Blues" immediately connected with audiences who seemed to find singer Chris Barron's hapless hippie lyrics and goofy grin a winning combination. --Rob O'Connor
